Has anyone seen vid of the lead-up? Everything I've seen is clipped to several seconds before the shots are fired. It doesn't justify the outcome but one of the narratives I've seen is she had been blocking the agents for some time.

She wasn't blocking at all. Please watch the video. In one of them a car passes in front of her without trouble. It's a 2 lane 1 way road, she's only in 1 lane.

I'm not debating that's the case in the vids we have but my question stands.

Well that’s been the republican strategy for decades now. They only succeed by lying. The good news is that the country is still split pretty evenly 50/50. I don’t know German history very well but I don’t remember hearing that non-Nazis were loudly opposing the Nazis. Time will tell how this all shakes out but I’m mentally preparing myself for the worst case scenario.

Nazis had street fights with socialists and communists for years. They were the first to be purged together with homosexuals, transvestites, handicapped, etc. Media were largely acting like our current media, woefully ineffective and passive reporting on right wing violence. Hitler called then lugenpresse, now its fake news. Resistance continued after that but not in the open, can be seen in the large number of assas…

@dang I don’t know if this is a bug… but how is this not on the front pages? (I checked 2. 74 upvotes / 34 comments 2h old) This is the type of thing that I sort of rely on HN to inform me about. Then other articles are seemingly killed as dupe which I guess would make sense if the original was visible.

There's stories right now on the front page that have fewer upvotes and were posted before this one.

At this point, it is getting increasingly harder to argue that HN isn't completely biased.

DHS secretary is calling this "domestic terrorism"... unbelievable. Everyone in the administration needs to be put on trial just like the Nazis in Nuremburg. Also remember the rights reaction to Babbit (an insurrectionist) being shot at the J6 riot. She was a patriot hero for delaying election certification but people resisting ICE goons are domestic terrorists.

Also remember the rights reaction to Babbit (an insurrectionist) being shot at the J6 riot.

That's official government policy now. It's worth taking a few minutes to look at that whole page, it's straight 1984 type revisionism.

those with absolutely no ethics I suppose look at IBM in the 1930s/40s as a prime example of how to make bank out of this sort of situation

Could you expand on what you're saying or link to relevant readings?

1) Use https://news.ycombinator.com/active, where demotions aren’t applied (at least that’s my understanding). The submission is currently on the front page there.

2) For contacting dang, email hn@ycombinator.com. “@dang” doesn’t do anything.

Video of the incident: https://www.reddit.com/r/law/comments/1q6o4d0/another_angle_...

YouTube link to Minnesota Reporter channel: https://youtu.be/K9CJY5p0xz4?si=IGIUoEjnepwER_4f

This link blocks the video with the messages "Sign in to confirm your age" and "This video may be inappropriate for some users.". Why is this current events video blocked when fictional broadcast television programs regularly dramatize people being shot and killed?
